libraries installed on alternate prefix

[Philippe Faes <Philippe Faes rug ac be>]

I compiled and installed some libs in my homedir (/home/pfaes/usr/local/...). 
I suspect my new dia binary still links with my OLD libraries. Result is: dia 
doesn't read any PNG files, and no text is displayed in a diagram.
How can I get dia to link with my up-to-date libraries?

thanks!
